Syracuse University

Founded in 1870, Syracuse University is an independent institution with an international reputation. Syracuse University is guided by its vision of Scholarship In Action and offers the best of two learning environments. As a major research university, it is large enough to offer a wide variety of academic and extracurricular activities, and yet its nine undergraduate colleges provide smaller, more intimate settings in which students have opportunities to build lasting relationships with mentoring faculty members. Scholarship In Action stresses the importance of multidisciplinary and interactive programs, where faculty and students learn, discover, and create through engagement with practitioners on campus, in the broader community, and the world. This is education for the world in the world. \r\n\r\nIn virtually every aspect of student life at Syracuse, choices abound. The many options of undergraduate majors and minors, dual enrollment programs, the range of courses available, opportunities to study abroad, internships, the scope of residential living options, and extracurricular activities make Syracuse University attractive to those who value a diverse educational experience.
